calcitonin , salmon

Calcitonin is a peptide hormone that lowers blood calcium level and inhibits bone resorption. It belongs to the calcitonin family of peptides, which also includes amylin , calcitonin gene-related peptide , and adrenomedullin. The binding of salmon calcitonin to the human calcitonin receptor (CTR) is not modulated by receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs), which influence affinity of human calcitonin to CTR. Salmon calcitonin binds to human CTR2 with IC50 values of 0.933, 0.224, 0.134, and 0.317 nM alone and with RAMP1, 2, or 3, respectively. It induces cAMP accumulation in COS-7 cells transfected with CTR2 (EC50 = 0.166 nM). Salmon calcitonin inhibits bone resorption by osteoclasts in a pit formation assay using rat bone slices (ID50 = 0.003 pg/mL) and lowers calcium level in vivo in a bioassay of hypocalcemia in rats (ED15 = 33.9 mg/kg). Formulations containing salmon calcitonin have been used to treat hypercalcemia, bone destruction by osteoporosis, and Paget's disease.

Calcitonin (8-32), salmon is a highly selective amylin receptor antagonist. Calcitonin, a hormone involved in calcium and phosphorus metabolism, is primarily produced by the parafollicular or C cells in the mammalian thyroid gland and is a 32 amino acid peptide cleaved from a larger prohormone.

Calcitonin (salmon), a calcium regulating hormone, is used to treat osteoporosis in women who are at least 5 years past menopause.

Dodecanoylcarnitine ((-)-Lauroylcarnitine) has been associated with disturbances in fatty acid oxidation, and the use of Dodecanoylcarnitine resulted in an increase in the permeability of salmon calcitonin.

Calcitonin-13CIC6,15NIC4(salmon) (Salmon calcitonin-13CIC6,15NIC4) TFA is a version of calcitonin(salmon) labeled with carbon-13 and nitrogen-15. This hormone regulates calcium and acts dualistically as an agonist to both amylin and calcitonin receptors, promoting bone formation while inhibiting bone resorption.

Lauroylcarnitine chloride improves the absorption of salmon calcitonin in rats and, during in situ bioavailability studies, increases the availability of Lucifer yellow while reducing claudin-4 protein expression in the colon [1] [2].
